Hi
I have a question:
I tried to compile with dj small programs (classical Hello.c) and output
file hello.exe was BIG (130kB). Hello.c uses (I suppose) standart lib
libgcc.a.
Next I tried to compile it with bc3.1 and output file was SMALL (6kB).
Next I have found in gnu archieve (gpcXX.zip) I took libgcc.a and overwrite
the previous one. After compilation file was 70kB.

Can you tell me how to minimize size of the output code? I use only few
standard functions.

PS: I also found that BC has small libraries. But it has strange names and I
don't know what functions are included.

Thanx Michal
